I used a monopod and a long lens to take these shots. I think I should have panned along with the players to get them to be  a little sharper.

Oh well, another time. One of the things that really struck me about this little adventure was watching them get ready to play. They sure had a lot of new expensive looking gear to warm up with. Guess I must be getting old because we didn't have any of this stiff when I was a kid.

I was pretty happy I was able to bring third base in this close from where I was standing way over by first base.
